Libby Bischof, Ph.D.

"A study of the past provides students with the context and understanding to be an engaged citizen in the increasingly global 21st century world. Students who study History improve their writing, analytical, and oral presentation skills - all useful as they transition into professional careers."

Daniel Sonenberg

"The School of Music has close relationships with numerous performing organizations in Portland. So world class talent that comes to Portland often also has a presence at the School, whether performing, giving master classes, or meeting individually with students."

Mariusz Jankowski, Ph.D.

"Our engineering programs are among the most challenging a student will face at USM - in return they develop confidence, critical thinking, and problem solving skills. They're also rewarded with some of the best starting salaries and job opportunities available."

"Pediatrics, physical rehab, mental health, hospitals, schools - there are so many careers in Occupational Therapy. And our program has great diversity in age and experience, which makes for a really rich learning environment."
